Borne of a Young Mother

It was the innocent spring of life, of which, never shared Spent summer youth in blanket gaze or in mystic stare Now the autumn winds, whisper of twice cried tears Of two stories told, each welling deep, the worst of harbored fear Maybe forever, two winters of discontent But still yet, a band plays on Purveyed are souls Seasons will pass, never meant

To be loved, and to love is sometimes only for a season. We have no control over who we love with all our heart, it just happens, and just as quickly as it happens something said or done can change it forever....your writes come from deep within your heart.....always, Christy

Hi David, nice to meet you!Your poems are wonderful!..you are very gifted, and there is more behind each one than meets the eye,I try to figure out what the story really tells.To answer you..you are not the only one who "tweaks and tweaks" poems.I do it even after it has been submitted weeks before!! I sometimes re-read it after several days...and know it isn't quite right.I've even gone back and messed them up...so guess my lack of confidence makes me unsure.I'm not as gifted as some here!
